Development & Prototyping

Sonic Manufacturing employs over 30 engineers with extensive development and manufacturing experience who stay in constant contact with clients. We provide a full range of support services for high-end, complex assemblies such as servers, electronic box builds, small run, and partially automated assembly projects.

The turnaround time for prototype deliveries ranges from two days to two weeks depending on project complexity and materials. We typically start with a small prototype assembly – manual or automatic – to determine the operation of a circuit or product. After that, development projects can be run through our automated assembly lines to verify manufacturability.

All of this is made possible by our advanced, state-of-the-art 85K square-foot facility in Fremont, California. It’s custom engineered to meet New Product Introduction (NPI) requirements as well as low- and high-volume world-class manufacturing standards. This allows us to work successfully with clients in San Jose and the rest of Silicon Valley.
